#11: You Must Spend Money to Make Money

In "EP 11: You Must Spend Money to Make Money" of the “One Eye Deer” Podcast, we learn the importance of spending money to make money and how much is needed to invest into a business.

Recently, an acquaintance in Malaysia contacted our KL office with the desire to start a business in KL or Selangor.

It is a B2C (business to consumer) to sell services directly to end clients. The nature of the business requires a physical location that caters to customers.

The acquaintance had done her own projections and calculated her initial capital outlay and monthly expenses needed to operate her business.

When we heard these figures, we immediately felt it was tremendously undervalued.

We did our own rough projections based on our experience and took the following costs in mind. Our projections for capital needed was more than twice projected and monthly expenses were almost 3 times as much as hers.

Unfortunately, the acquaintance felt our projections were too high and not realistic. And that her figures were viable.

So is it really necessary to spend first in order to generate more revenue for your business in the long run?

Join certified marketing management consultant, J C Sum, as he talks further on whether you must spend money to make more money.
